Light Bringer

For an age longer than memory keeps, the Twelve have ruled the whole of creation, and D'HarmaSan has served their order without question.Until the day she reaches, deliberately, into a stillness she was never permitted to disturb, and a universe answers back.What she creates, she hides. Two worlds, tucked away from everything she has ever sworn loyalty to. To watch over them, she makes a son: Luxfer, gentle eyed and curious, who will come to love both worlds so completely that his love becomes the very thing that unmakes them.As Luxfer's devotion hardens into a golden kingdom promising to end all suffering by ending all choice, and as the Twelve she has spent an age deceiving begin to notice a universe that was never supposed to exist, D'HarmaSan must finally answer for what she has done, and Luxfer must decide what kind of god he is actually willing to become.Perfect for readers of Ursula K. Le Guin, Madeline Miller, and Susanna Clarke, The Light Bringer is patient, luminous, and unafraid to ask the oldest questions as if for the first time.The Light Bringer is Book One of The Eternal Cycle. The story continues in The Scattered Names and concludes in The Last Question.
